Test Optional Schools, 2017

What’s a “test optional” school? Test optional is Latin for “We’re scared of dropping the SAT/ACT tests because U.S. News & World Report’s all-powerful college reviews will drop us like a hot rock.”

There are over 900 schools, though, that put your performance at school first, and either look minimally or not at all at your SAT/ACT scores. Most will tell you that they don’t need you to report them, but you can.
